The Legend of Harry Potter Schoolmaster

Chapter 20 Potions Teacher (Part 2)

Like Professor McGonagall, Professor Snape had no trouble keeping the classroom in order.

He spent half a class instructing students in two classes, working in pairs, to learn to prepare the simplest magic potion for scabies.

It is said to be the simplest magic potion, but regardless of the materials or steps, it seems quite cumbersome.

Jon Hart and Astoria Greenglass are a team.

Following Snape's orders, Jon took out dried nettles, snake fangs, and porcupine thorns from the potions cabinet; Astoria raised the fire and put her The crucible was placed on it.

During their setup, Snape dragged a long black cloak around the classroom like a giant bat, observing their setup steps...most of the Hufflepuffs during that time. of students, were severely criticized by him; even many Slytherin students could not avoid it.

After returning to his seat, Jon's movements were very quick. In fact, the simple movements of grinding, dissolving, and boiling were familiar to him with the experience of previous life.

"Why do you grind the porcupine thorns?" Astoria asked inexplicably, "The book says to chop the porcupine thorns and add them together with the snake's fangs!"

"A fool should know that grinding into powder will dissolve more easily than broken pieces!" Jon shrugged and continued to grind.

Astoria frowned and continued to smash the small piece of snake fang with the hammer.

"Help me roast the nettles in the pot for a while so that the water will dry out...Thank you!" Jon ordered while carefully mixing the porcupine thorn powder with the crushed snake fangs.

Astoria opened her mouth, but did not make a sound, but did as Jon asked.

During this period, Snape passed by their location several times, stopped to observe their movements for several minutes, and even saw the small plate of porcupine thorns that had been crushed into powder... But he didn't make the slightest interference, just squinted. Just a few glances at Jon.

After the nettles, porcupine quills, and snake fangs have all been added to the pot.

"It needs to be boiled for five minutes." Astoria looked at the "Magic Potion and Potion" in her hand and reminded.

Jon looked at his watch as he increased the flame little by little.

After the mixed liquid began to turn yellow, he quickly turned down the flame to keep the liquid from boiling too much.

"I hope you don't screw it up..." Astoria said nervously on the other side.

Jon has nothing to worry about... Hogwarts' Potions textbook is actually not authoritative and correct, and even simple things like squeezing or cutting beans are prone to liquid, and such simple things will go wrong.

But it's normal. After all, there are less than 10,000 wizards in the magical world in Britain, which is equivalent to a small town's teachers writing a set of textbooks by themselves. It's quite normal for there to be a lot of loopholes.

In this way, instead of sticking to the rules, it is better to make some small corrections to the steps based on the experience of previous biochemical experiments.

After all, even in the magical world, the Basic Law must be taught, right?

Half an hour later, Snape walked slowly between the tables, taking turns examining each cauldron, their results.

He smiled sarcastically when he saw the ugly blue concoction that Zacharias-Smith-Smith and Heloise-Midgen had prepared: "Do you think you can drink this potion, Smith? Sir and Miss Midgen?"

"As for this pot, instead of treating the scabies, it will make the scabies worse!" he said of Selwyn Yaxley's work again.

Almost every student's work was picked up by Snape and sneered, until he reached the first row:

Snape frowned when he saw the clear, pale yellow liquid in the cauldron in front of Jon and Astoria.

The expression on his face was very strange, as if he wanted to pick out the fault, but couldn't.

"Good job..." he said dryly. "Miss Greenglass... Five points for Slytherin!"

...

"This is too much!" Snape had just left the potions classroom when Zacharis rushed over angrily: "I heard that Snape was partial to Slytherin... but it was too much. Right? Why only give points to Greenglass and not Jon!"

As he spoke, he glared at Astoria, thinking it was her fault.

Astoria silently arranged the cauldron as if she hadn't seen it; and poured the potion she had just prepared with Jon into the crystal bottle.

Zacharis angrily scolded Snape for about five minutes before he left the Potions classroom arrogantly; the other Hufflepuff and Slytherin students had already left... Only Jon and Jon were left behind. Astoria two.

Astoria finally packed her things.

"I'll go and talk to Professor Snape!" she said softly, "Tell him, you're basically making all the potions today...it has nothing to do with me...let him return the points to Hufflepuff. ."

"There's no need for that!" Jon smiled. He didn't think that with Snape's character, he would deduct points from Slytherin and give extra points to other colleges.

"It's not just me. Today's potion is the result of our joint efforts. I think if there is a next time, Professor Snape will give Hufflepuff extra points!" too much to believe.

Astoria seemed to have some faith, but she nodded seriously.

The two packed their things and walked out of the potions classroom.

Whether Hufflepuff's lounge or Slytherin's lounge, it's not far from here.

Astoria stopped, seeming hesitant.

"What's wrong?" Jon asked.

"Professor Snape put Daphne in confinement for a week." Astoria said timidly, "He also ordered Daphne to apologize to you... Can I apologize to you in her place?"

A week of confinement, the punishment is more severe than I imagined. It's almost the same level of punishment as Potter and Weasley who drove to school.

But it's normal to think about it. For Severus Snape, the word he hates most is undoubtedly "mudblood"! After all, it was the pain of his life.

Jon had no intention of continuing this stalemate.

"Of course!" He blinked: "You can tell Daphne, it's alright!"

"Thank you..." Astoria said quickly with a smile on her face.

"Let's go!" Jon waved. "I'm back in Hufflepuff's lounge."

"goodbye!"
